Georges, mon grand frère
Si, pour notre bonheur
Tu revenais sur Terre
Pour y faire le chanteur
Égrener tes ballades
Tes savoureux huitains
Tu ne donnerais plus souvent l´aubade
À la radio le matin
Car par malchance
Les trois-quarts des stations
Cultivent l´indifférence
Pour la bonne chanson
Et même la mieux écrite
Qui n´a pas leur tampon
N´ira jamais sur leur playlist
En français, t´es marron
Ils diraient
T´as pas la couleur, t´as pas la couleur
Pour ma radio branchée
T´es plus sur le marché
T´as pas la couleur, t´as pas la couleur
Toute ta prosodieNe vaut plus un radis
Mon très cher Georges
Si tu es là-haut, vois-tu
Dans les rues qu´on s´égorge
Mais qu´on ne chante plus
Pas plus que sur les ondes
Les télés en gros plan
Où des braves gens confondent
Les flatulences et le talent
Georges, cher Georges
Aujourd´hui ta Margot
Malgré sa jolie gorge
Risquerait l´embargo
Dans ces stations services
Toutes en prêt à chanter
Le brillant cuistre de service
T´aurait vite écarté
Il dirait
T´as pas la couleur, t´as pas la couleur
Pour ma radio branchée
T´es plus sur le marché
Bref, mon cher Georges
L´Auvergnat n´est pas seul
Victime de ces coupe-gorge
Où l´on sert du tilleul
Cette charmante overdose
De bluettes insipides
L´auditeur à qui on l´impose
Est-il aussi stupide?
Tu ne montras pas ta
Réelle consternation
Aux crétins qui interdirent ta
Mauvaise réputation
Colosse aux pieds d´argile
Verlaine et La Boétie
Ont subi les mêmes imbéciles
Et leur impéritie
T´as pas la couleur, t´as pas la couleur
Que ces mots de malheur
Ont fait verser de pleurs
Que de peuplades
De tribus et d´ethnies
Connurent bastonnades
Brimades et dénis
Le délit de sale gueule
Le syndrome du foncé
La vie entière jusqu´au linceul
On leur a ressassé
T´as pas la couleur, t´as pas la couleur
Eh oui, même aujourd´hui
C´est c´ que partout l´on dit
T´as pas la couleur, t´as pas la couleur
Georges, comme tu le disais
Les cons s´arrêtent jamais

Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
